Summary: A fairly relaxed time of it this week, with lots of interesting paid projects, and a bit of a break from my own writing.   Monday: An Hour of Writes prompt popped up in my inbox the other day and I decided to submit something on a whim, so today I started out by […]

Summary: A bit hit and miss this week – I wasn’t feeling particularly motivated, so I shunted quite a bit of work into next week, but managed to focus on finishing my latest short story.   Tuesday: A couple of new, short assignments came through from previous clients overnight, so I did those first. Then […]

Summary: The focus was much more on paid work than personal projects this week, but I did get some of my own writing done as well.   Monday: I didn’t get much sleep the night before, and the case numbers were shooting up again, so I decided against going to the cafe today. I started […]

Summary: I’ve logged a ‘writing day’ on my tracker every day for the last two weeks, which is very unusual for me! Normally, if I try and write every day, I burn out after about ten days and have to take a couple of weeks off! A day counts as a ‘writing day’ if I […]

Summary: I achieved my novel-writing goals for January, which feels really good. Now, I can take more time in February to work on shorter projects, or have a break!   Monday: I braved the outside world again today, and went to the cafe for the first time since well before Christmas. And the only table […]

Summary: It was a very good week in terms of both paid work and personal writing projects. I feel like I made good progress on all fronts, but without actually having to work too hard!   Monday: A friend asked me to come over, so I shunted all my writing/editing tasks to later in the […]

Summary: Some ups and downs this week, but overall a decent amount of progress on both personal and paid projects. I’m still struggling with feeling as if I have time to fit everything in, though!   Monday: New week, new paid projects, new work ethic! After taking most of last week off, I made a […]

Summary: I didn’t actually do very much paid work this week, which was a great start to my plan to work less this year! But I did work on both novels and create an excellent plan for completing them earlier and also doing more reading.   Monday: I played one new game over the course […]

Summary: I actually did more this week than I’d planned, since there were a couple of reviews to write and some friendly editing to offer. But it was mostly a week off.   Monday: I got some books for Christmas, and read one of them in just over 24 hours, so I wrote my review. […]

Summary: I didn’t manage to complete all my current paid editing projects before Christmas, but only because they were delayed by the clients. Otherwise, I had a very productive week with writing and editing, and also managed to take some time off and relax a bit!   Monday: I started my last writing/editing week of […]
